Hi, is there a way to password protect VB projects independent of the
Workbook they are attached to? If so, is the method secure, or is it
similiar to the workbook protection scheme (ie. easily crackable).
Thanks, Jeff
 
Jeffrey,

You can password protect the VBA project. In VBA, go to the Tools
menu, choose VBA Project Properties, then the Protection tab.
There, check the "Lock Project For Viewing" option and enter a
password.

There are a variety of commercial products that can break VBA
Project passwords.
